When the new gear is engaged, the
indicator turns off. If the shift runs late
or is not performed at all, the indicator
remains lit for a few seconds then
turns off. As soon as new conditions
occur requiring further gear change,
the indicator light will illuminate
again.
NOTE:
The gearshift indicator will only work
when the transmission is set in M
(Manual) mode.
I C E Mode excluding ESC
To release the vehicle in low grip
conditions (e.g.: snow, mud, sand, etc),
it is possible to shift the transmission
feature in the specific driving mode as
required for these situations, by
pressing theICEbutton and to
exclude completely the yaw and
spinning control system, by pressing
the
button for two seconds.
Transmission Malfunction and
Overheating Conditions
Transmission Emergency Control
Transmission function is monitored
electronically to detect abnormal
conditions. If a condition is detected
that could result in transmission
damage, Transmission Limp Home
Mode is activated. In this situation, the
transmission may operate only in
certain gears, or may not shift at all.
Vehicle performance may be severely
degraded and the engine may stall. In
some situations, the transmission
system may not re-engage if the
engine is turned off and restarted. The
automatic transmission failure
indicator light
may illuminate.
A message in the instrument cluster
will inform the driver about the more
serious transmission conditions, and
indicate what actions may be
necessary.
Transmission Oil Over Temperature
If the transmission oil temperature
exceeds the operating limit, the
amber light illuminates on the
instrument cluster.
In this case, slow down until the
temperature returns to normal level
(the light will turn off).
If this is not sufficient, we recommend
you stop the vehicle, shift the lever to
position P (Park) or N (Neutral) and
keep the engine idle until the
temperature warning light
turns
off and the message disappears from
the display. Resume driving without
demanding high engine performance.
If the warning light
and the related
message turns on again, it is advisable
to stop the vehicle, turn off the engine
